The North Dakota District participates in a model for funding missions to which every congregation is invited to contribute. It is completely voluntary, but we believe that as God’s people see and hear what is being accomplished specifically and directly in support and development of new missions and enhancing existing missions, more and more of us will want to be involved.

This funding model is based on the belief that "there is power and strength in many giving a little."  Loving our neighbor includes caring for their spiritual well-being. This is why we encourage God’s people to come together in support of missions that are bearing kingdom fruit.

1-1-1 Mission Giving (also sometimes called "A Dollar for Missions") involves every baptized member of the Body of Jesus in your congregation, from the newest baby baptized to the oldest member.  It demonstrates the power of the body of Christ working together, prompted by faith. It shows how much can be accomplished by many, giving little.

Here's the plan:
$1/per baptized member/per week.

As of January 2026, there are 15,997 baptized members in the North Dakota District. If every baptized member of our District congregations participated in this initiative, we could produce $831,844 annually in addition to our district’s total budget. The numbers are staggering.  Just think about what else we could do!

To further encourage participation in this effort within the ND District, our Board of Directors has voted to allocate all 1-1-1 Mission funds received during the 2026-27 fiscal year to Wittenberg Chapel, our mission church on the campus of the University of North Dakota in Grand Forks.

For "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." 
How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? 
And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? 
And how are they to hear without someone preaching? 
And how are they to preach unless they are sent? 
As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!" -Romans 10:13-15
